pinks, whites and pastels

there are exactly 25 days until we head off to london.

last night was the first of my goodbyes - had dinner with some girlfriends and realised it was the last time i would see them before i leave.

i can't say that i was sad. it was more mixed feelings of anxiety, excitement, fear, glee. it's all really quite surreal and overwhelming. and part of me is like, "um, we'll be back in about a year so what's the big deal?"

but it is a big deal. a huge deal. neither of us have ever stepped out of our comfort zone like this before. we're not just moving to london for a year or so, we're embarking on an incredible journey that will grow us, potentially break us, enlighten us, push us beyond what we could ever imagine and it will be the experience of a lifetime. how can we not come back changed?
